The MSM take great pride in their campaign against the British National Party, if the figures below mean anything, then the ‘dead tree press’ is going to be one less medium we have fighting against us. Nationalists will be delighted to know that every national newspaper lost print circulation year on year in March, according to the figures released by ABC.
Press Gazette
Growth of The Independent’s new cut-price stablemate ‘i’ seems to have levelled off. It saw a slight month-on-month drop from 175,714 to 171,415 sales a day.
The worst performer in a particularly tough month for print sales was the Glasgow-based Sunday Herald which fell 27.5 per cent year on year to 31,123 sales a week. Amid staff cutbacks it relaunched as a news magazine in January.

Nationalists who visit this blog regularly know only too well the reason for the decline in circulation.
How many times have we reported stories that newspapers deliberately ignored?
Way too many to count.
So what is the point of buying a newspaper, when you can get better, and unbiased stories for free on the Internet?
I only hope that sooner rather than later, at least one of these organs of propaganda closes down, it will be poetic justice.
